“Holy Ground”

Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the

earth. Mt. 5:5 (ESV)

Savior, like a shepherd lead us,

Much we need Thy tender care;

In Thy pleasant pastures feed us, For our use Thy folds prepare:

Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,

Thou hast bought us,

Thine we are;


Thou hast bought us, Thine we are.

61 “Savior, Like a Shepherd Lead Us”

We are Thine; do Thou befriend us, Be the Guardian of our way;

Keep Thy flock, from sin defend us, Seek us when we go astray:


Hear, O hear us when we pray;


Hear, O hear us when we pray.


Thou hast promised to receive us, Poor and sinful though we be;

Thou hast mercy to relieve us,

Grace to cleanse, and pow’r to free:


Early let us turn to Thee;


Early let us turn to Thee.


Early let us seek Thy favor;

Early let us do Thy will;

Blessed Lord and only Savior,

With Thy love our beings fill:


Thou hast loved us, love us still;


Thou hast loved us, love us still.

Prayer

“O Master, Let Me Walk With Thee ”

O Master, let me walk with theeIn lowly paths of service free;

Tell me thy secret; help me bearThe strain of toil, the fret of care.


Help me the slow of heartto move

By some clear, winning word of love;

Teach me the wayward feet to stay,

And guide them in the homeward way.


Teach me thy patience; still with thee

In closer, dearer company,In work that keeps faith

sweet and strong,In trust that triumphs over wrong;


In hope that sends a shining ray Far down the future'sbroad’ning way,

In peace that only thou canst give, With thee, O Master, let me live.

THE COMMITMENTCHOICE

Part 3January 24, 2010Pastor Groover

Week/Choice 1: The Reality Choice: realize I'm not God,

admit I'm powerless to control my tendency to do

the wrong thing and my life is unmanageable.

(Mt. 5:3)

Week/Choice 2: The Hope Choice: earnestly believe

that God exists, that I matter to Him, and that

He has the power to help me change. (Mt. 5:4)

Week/Choice 3: The Commitment Choice:

consciously choose to commit all my life and will to Christ's

care and control. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. Mt. 5:5

(NIV)

1. MEEK IS: __________________________ STRENGTH UNDER CONTROL

Christ, who suffered for you, is your example. Follow in his steps. He never

sinned, and he never deceived anyone. He did not retaliate when he was insulted. When he suffered, he did not threaten to get even. He left

his case in the hands of God, who always judges fairly. 1 Peter 2:21-23

(NLT)

Meekness has always been God's way for humanity (see Job 5:11; Num. 12:3; Ps. 25:9; Eph. 4:1-2; Col.

3:12; Titus 3:1-2)

Now the man Moses was very meek, more than all

men that were on the face of the earth.

Numbers 12:3 (RSV)

Meekness means I acknowledge:

Fill me with Thy love and power;Let Thy blessing fall on me.


I surrender all.
